Agitprop Comes to Vancouver

Posted by Daniel on Oct 30, 2010

The always interesting Past Tense blog has a new post about the 1935 Vancouver production of the Clifford Odets play "Waiting for Lefty".

The play was put on by the Progressive Arts Club and was a great success, despite the attention of local law enforcement who thought it was Commie propaganda. It was even chosen to represent BC at the next year's Dominion Drama Festival.
